Sunderland vs Wycombe
England – League One Playoff
Date: Saturday, 21 May 2022
Kick-off at 15:00 UK/ 16:00 CET
Venue: Wembley Stadium.
Both these teams have come so far to go home empty handed now. Sunderland had finished 5th in the table at the end of the regular season and they were one of the best offenses in the league all through the campaign.
Meanwhile, Wycombe had finished 6th, trailing by a single point and they too had consistently found the back of the net all along.
It also needs to be noted that the first round of the playoffs were so dramatic that Sunderland made it to the final after slotting in their winning goal in the 93rd minute of the second leg, that too on the road.
By the looks of things anticipate goals in plenty as the two lock horns this Saturday.
